ABS and Steering Control indicator lights began to blink for about 10 seconds while driving at highway speed on I-95. Vents suddenly began to blow hot air and BRAKE indicator light came on. Pulled over, shut engine. Wouldn't crank when trying to restart. Then battery died. Under the hood it smelled like something was burning. Had it towed. Stealership replaced the alternator. Same 160 amp alternator that was recalled for this very issue in RWD Chryslers of this generation; not in the FWD. So, $1,000 dollars later, I'm a bit peeved, but happy it didn't die in the middle of the road or I'd be dead.
